Question about feeding dogs

[Jonsoutdoors]

Hey Guys,
As some of you have probably already read about me, I am just geting back into hunting with hounds after about 30 years. I am finally at a place where I can hunt with them on a fairly regular bases like every hound deserves to be hunted. Anyway, like most everything else, things change in the way things are done especially after 30 years. I am seeing all kinds of changes in the hound hunting from whatitwas back then. Everything from the breeding to what is expected of a hound to the way they are trained to their care. Some things I see are real good changes but some I am not sure that old school wasn't better. Anyway, I always liked to give my dogs a lot of protein. Because of the rediculas prices back then and now for these fancy high protein foods, I feed my dogs an average protein dog food. I found it to be cheaper when I can just add protein. We also believed we could get a better protien when we just added it. One thing we used to do is put chicken eggs in their food. I started doing that with my dogs now. My wife has chickens so they get at least a couple eggs a day in their food. But here is where I need some expert advise. Like the Russian astronaut said in the movie, "Armageden", Is thees goood or bad? Maybe some other ideas.
Thanks for the help.

You're exactly correct in getting your dogs as much protein as you can. I feed a lot of bison, since I have access to a lot of it, especially heart and liver. In a lot of places you can use roadkill where it's legal, or get a hold of the local guy who picks up dead horses. In any case, you should be able to get as much meat as you can use, and its free. It just takes a little bit of effort. Any of these things are exactly what you should be giving your dogs. Just feeding dry food no matter what brand it is, is not the best for your dog.
